The Bachelor 2017

I have to say Matty isn't coming across well in the last two shows. He of all people should have some empathy for those girls he's holding prisoner in the house until he decides it's time to dust one off and take her for a date. I totally disagreed with the slut shaming - if the producers knew about Leah and Simone's backgrounds I'm sure they thought they had passed the vetting process and didn't expect to be thrown to the wolves on National TV. I did agree that Leah should be asked to leave once she saod she had deliberately targeted Simone but thought it wasn't made clear enough that it was down to her bullying behaviour not her past history. Poor Simone and Sharlene, I wanted to give them both big hugs. you could see both were close to tears. I also wanted either Leah or Simone to ask Matty if he had been to one of those bucks parties with the topless waitresses.

Not warming to Elora or florence so I hope neither of them is the final choice. I still think Tara is a good match but think it will go to Laura.

... hahaha!... I'm not doing bad for someone that was only coming over here to 'The Bachelor' just to check out 1 or 2 episodes because a few of you talked me into it eh?... as we did with yourself watching 'Survivot' Desertsands lol!... I would NEVER had voluntarily watched The Bachelor otherwise... lol!... and... I am getting an amazing education on how much women can be so mean and bitchy towards each other in a group lol!... what an eye opener that is!... lol!... cheers.

Oh @Mr Stickyfingers do not take these ....girls (not women) as any kind of indication of how real women behave.
In my experience working etc, and high school - all girls- smart females never behave like tacky bitches.
Dumb and shallow girls can be utter bitches, professional and educated women are never this silly or attention seeking.

My sisters are actually almost the biggest bitches I have ever dealt with, and yeah the dumber the bitchier.
But my eldest brother takes the cake as the biggest bitch ever, and a few of my male bosses

...haha!... yes I know what you mean kxk and I don't take them as an indication of women in real life because I know that it is all for the cameras and drama but it is interesting to me of how certain women can behave in a competitive TV show environment is what I should have said... lol!... I worked in a company for 34 years and have met and dealt with countless amounts of individual bitchy women (usually the 'climbing corporate ladder' types) and do know how bitchy individual women can behave but what is the educational part for me is seeing them in a group environment on TV like that and their interactions of combating each other with their bitchiness... I've never seen that side of women before lol!...

...I know that it's all for the cameras and that's all... that's why I cannot possibly believe for one minute that ANYBODY could 'fall in love' for real in the span of the show... perhaps many months after but not during the span of the show... but thanks for pointing that out kxk... I love finding out new things about you sweet ladies every day of my life... (even if it's fake behaviour on TV)... you ladies are a fascinating bunch and I'll never ever fully understand you until the day that I die but my dad used to always say to me that a smart man will never understand a woman but he can sure as hell have fun finding out about them all of the time... and yes... he was right... lol!... I'm still learning... I like to call myself a 'learnatic'... cheers.

In regards to Michelle, I agree she seems lovely. I think she needs someone more mature than Matty. Also, didn't she get the first rose pre-ceremony? And yet she still hasn't got a single date after so many episodes. This makes me think that Matty was being duplicitous in giving her that rose... probably a red herring move?

According to "news" reports today, Sophie Monk is set to be paid $300,000, Matty J gets $200,000, and contestants get $90 per day.

...$90 per day?... so if the Bachelorettes are there for just a month they only get about $2880 for being totally humiliated on National TV?... so what it boils down to is that they're all 'fame whores' just for the TV exposure then?... not the so-called 'love'... haha!... fair enough!... why am I not surprised about that Meglos?... lol!... oh!.... and by the way... I'm so glad to see for once that a female is being paid more than a male for doing the exact same job for a change lol!... that must surely dent Matt's ego even more lol!... cheers.

Sophy monk. The nice person in me says good luck, but tracically the bitch in me says no. Would I as a sixty year old plus women do it.? It would be a very funny show.
 
...Leah was just on 'have you been paying attention'... as you can imagine... the panel said some funny stuff about The Bachelor lol!... cheers.

Jen is set to leave soon. Apparently she is wuitting the show. Her ex boyfriend was Jake in the Bachelorette last season. She quits when she found out about one of his family members becoming ill.

Rumour has it as well that Matty's ex girlfriend is set to be an intruder?

Both of these have been found on DailyMail

...jeez!... I hope that is not true... she's one of my favourites... but with my kind of luck... it's most likely true... lol!... Matty most likely knows that guy is her ex and is probably 'pouty' about it knowing him... the little diddums!... hence as to why he's never asked her so far...

...thanks for the article affable... cheers.
